Hello,
I'm asking the following because of my situation, I'm not attempt to
ask private things like specific job and salary. But as a Chinese
blind, I have to think more than you.
I just made an orchestral accompaniment of my song for my old
classmate who wants to sing it. It's a political song which is
therefore grandious. But the GPO renders very thing sounds, and we all
don't like the result. Now I'd like to purchase VSL Super Package (I
only want to pay once), but am not sure whether it's valuable. I asked
some people, and knew that my problem is because of not only the
library, but mixing. I'm a newbie of midi, so many things here are
blank fields. Do you make midi and mix all by yourselves? Or do you
have your own studios and have colleagues to mix? Is mixing easy to
the blind? In my situation, I'm a single composer, so nobody can help
me. But I want to make a living with midi. I was a pianist, but the
motion coordination problem prevented me from playing fairly well and
stable. Composition is good, but no orchestra will simply play my
music unless it's good and there's a good sample for them to be
quickly familiar with it. If I write songs for others, I'd like to
make accompaniment myself, because additional work by other people
will not only reduce my incoming but make the customer think that my
skill is not complete. These are my own thoughts only, but I want to
ensure how you deal with your projects and how you can make a living
with it.
Regards
Haipeng
